Full description

Feel the breeze as you cruise along Dotonbori River on a 20-minute ride. The area of Dotonbori is one of the most crowded in the city; it's not uncommon to feel a little tired after walking around it. Take a break from the crowds and enjoy unusual views of famous buildings and bridges, impossible to experience on foot.

The cruise will start from between Aiau-bashi Bridge and Tazaemon-Bashi Bridge. You will see Nippon-bashi Bridge, iconic Glico advertisements, Ebisu-bashi Bridge, Dotonbori-bashi Bridge, and much more. Take a turn after Ukiniwa-bashi Bridge and return to where you boarded the boat. Learn about Dotonbori River and its bridges in your preferred language thanks to the provided map.
